Shimano SLX A SLX A 70 A
The SLX is one of Shimano’s most popular baitcasters, combining excellent value for money with solid and reliable performance. Built to Shimano’s proven standards, this reel impresses not only with its performance and reliability, but also with its price. The SLX is the ideal choice for beginners to baitcasting. Anyone who has previously fished only with fixed spool reels and now wants to enjoy a faster, more compact and lighter baitcaster would be very well advised to choose an SLX. But experienced baitcaster enthusiasts who appreciate excellent value for money should definitely take a closer look at the SLX. Whatever your motivation, you can’t go wrong with this value-for-money champion. The distinctive, compact HAGANE body, which is easy to handle and operate even for inexperienced anglers, incorporates many of the tried-and-tested, reliable technologies found in higher-priced models. In the lower price segment, you often have to compromise on quality. However, this does not apply to the SLX. This baitcaster sets new standards in the lower price segment. It also features a lightweight and high-performance HAGANE body that works extremely effectively even under load. During casting, the speed of the spool rotation is regulated by the SVS Infinity drag system, which can be adjusted almost infinitely via an external dial. This makes it easy to adjust the spool drag to suit the bait size and personal preferences. Furthermore, the exclusive S3D Spool and Silent Tune technologies reduce vibrations on the Magnumlite III spool during casting. The slightly longer handle will impress with its improved cranking power right from the first fight.

Safety instructions:
“ - Handle hooks with care: Always cover the fishing hooks or remove them from the rods for transportation. Use corks or hook covers to avoid accidental injury.
- Keep your distance: Fish at least 10 meters away from others to avoid accidents. Watch out for people behind you before casting. Be careful with carbon fiber: Carbon fiber rods are strong but can be brittle. Avoid dropping them or banging them against hard surfaces as this can cause damage.
- Safe transportation: Always take your rod apart and place it in a protective cover during transportation to prevent damage from external influences.
- Carbon fiber rods conduct electricity. Do not use them during thunderstorms or near power lines.
- Never try to pull lures or leaders out of trees or bushes by applying pressure to the rod and fishing line. This can result in the bait/lead being catapulted towards the angler. Use only your hands to free the bait/lead.
- Train beginners: Instruct children and beginners in the safe handling of rods and hooks to minimize risks.
- Safety distance: Always keep a distance of at least six meters from high-voltage power lines when carrying or using fishing rods.
- Avoid high sticking: Do not bend your rod too much while you are drilling a fish, which is known as “high sticking. Hold the rod at a maximum loading angle of 45 to 60 degrees to avoid breakage.
- Aligning the rod for snags: If your lure snags, keep the rod pointed at the hook while walking backwards to reduce the strain on the rod.
- Be careful with carbon fiber: Carbon fiber rods are strong but can be brittle. Avoid dropping them or banging them against hard surfaces as this can cause damage.
- Safe transportation: Always take your rod apart and place it in a protective cover during transportation to prevent damage from external influences.
